YOUNG AND FREE

Young and free Young and free How I feel in your company If only yesterday I'd hesitate to say What would become of me Young and free Young and free Know too much Know too much Keeps you old and gray And out of touch My words, too quick to sound The arms are slow to fold around A knowing touch Young and free Young and free The clock alarms The day begins (clock alarms, the day begins) The lady charms The money spends She's trying on The satin shoes She wants to fly To Baton Rouge (Baton Rouge) Ah, the clock alarms The day begins (clock alarms, the day begins) The lady charms The money spends She wants to buy The satin shoes She wants to fly To Baton Rouge (Baton Rouge) I don't know why To Baton Rouge Autumn day Autumn day Leaves like birds Up and flown away Here's to days I used to wake up dead Alone, stay in bed The curtains drawn all day Young and free Young and free Young and free Young and free (Young and free) (Young and free) (Young and free) (Young and free)
